My wife and I apples IDs are synced and they managed to hack her ID through mine where they I think they created a dummy verification and asked her to enter the password, created a guest profile which have locked her out her laptop, iphone and iPad. All the evidence points to me because it has my history. No sure how to solved this as the hard-drive is encrypted.

Everything they do? No. But it's certainly possible for someone to hack your Apple ID and then see certain things. They would be able to see anything you have synced to iCloud... calendar, contacts, notes, iCloud e-mail, etc. There are also some surprising things you might not think about. For example, you can choose to sync Safari through iCloud, in which case a hacker could see exactly what sites you're looking at.

To prevent this, as Roger said, make sure you choose a good password. In addition, make sure any e-mail address associated with your Apple ID are secured with a strong password. (Hackers who can gain access to your e-mail account could reset your Apple ID password, intercept the e-mail and then take over your Apple ID.)

You should also enable two-factor authentication to increase the security of your Apple ID. Note that if you do this, be sure to store the recovery key carefully. If you lose it, and forget your Apple ID password, you're screwed... you'll never get back in, unless you remember the password.

For someone to hack your ID they would have to know your password - a good reason for making it really strong. In fact Apple are requiring at least 8 characters of which one must be upper-case and one a numeral: no dictionary words or odd punctuation signs - stick to plain letters and numbers.

12 characters would be even better. This would be pretty well unguessable. If someone can work out your password they can get into your iCloud account and read your emails, contacts and calendar (so they would know if you'd gone on holiday) and in iTunes they could make purchases on your account. So choosing your dog's name as a password is not a god idea 🙂
